We Found A Better Whey

A four ingredient, sparkling probiotic beverage made from fresh whey. Packed with protein, electrolytes and nutrients, Spare Tonic® is sustainably sourced and made to enjoy on its own, after a workout, or mixed into better-for-you cocktails and mocktails that are better for the planet too. Then again, planet-friendly foods are what we do best.

Why Whey?

2-3 times more whey is produced and discarded in the process of making 1 cup of Greek-style yogurt than Greek-style yogurt itself. That’s not just a lot of nutrition down the drain, but irresponsibly discarded whey can become environmentally harmful waste. When we learned that 70% of strained yogurt in the USA is produced in NY State, we saw a golden opportunity to turn a disposable culture into a healthy and delicious product.

A Brilliant Use of
Brilliant Whey

We say brilliant because of its color – whey is almost a neon green color. Inspired by the viable and valuable properties of fresh whey (its benefits have been known for millennia), we partnered with local yogurt manufacturers, got to work in the kitchen, and gave it a brilliant way to shine. Spare Tonic® speaks for itself.

What’s In
The Can

hydrate YOUR LIFE

Unlike a powder, the electrolytes and nutrients in fresh whey are bio-available and more easily absorbed by your cells so you won’t miss out on any of their health-enhancing benefits.

CALORIES = fuel

Spare Tonic®️ has a naturally occurring 3:1 ratio of carbs to protein, which makes it an ideal drink to boost your performance and fuel your recovery with calories that power your active life.

Now that’s a good sugar

Honey does more for your body than most sweeteners. With antioxidants, nutrients, and high value calories, it’s great in our tonics and helps support our pollinators.
